Delightful Cottage In Idyllic Suffolk Village

Delightful Cottage In Idyllic Suffolk Village

The property has three double rooms and is decorated to a very high standard. The village of Orford is close to the Suffolk coast and Snape Maltings home to the Aldeburgh Festival and galleries, shops and lovely walking country. The RSPB Minsmere is a few miles away and many other great bird watching places. You can sail from Orford out into the North Sea and wander up the East Anglian Coast. Being fairly flat it is great bicycling countryside along coastal paths or around the Suffolk lanes. Many local sites Suton Hoo, Framlingham with its Castle, Aldeburgh, Sothwold & Thorpness. The nearest golf course is Aldeburgh & Woodbridge which also has a large swimming pool.

Coast/Beach:

Orford was an important fishing village in the Middle Ages & fresh fish,lobsters & crab can still be bought on the Quay. Shingle beaches at nearby Aldeburgh,with a large yachtclub with delicious food, Southwold's sandy beaches are 20miles

from Orford.

Travel:

Stanstead is the nearest Airport about 1hr 1/2, trains from London Liverpool street to Woodbrige (20 minutes). There are local bus services but I would

recommend hiring a car to explore more freely.

Wonderful and cosy cottage

We had a wonderful stay at Mole Cottage. Very well equipped and cosy house. Decorated beautifully. Very near the center of Orford, went to the Jolly Sailor for delicious dinner and there was lots of crabbing and wonderful walks. Great tennis courts and bikes to hire next door at the garage. All in all a fabulous stay for all ages and will definitely be back.!
